What is being bought
Reading Borough Council is seeking to appoint a specialist multi-disciplinary Design and Management Team to deliver the Henley Road Cemetery Extension project. The extension is required to secure burial capacity for Reading beyond 2030, as the existing cemetery is approaching capacity and alternative options have been determined to be unsuitable or unviable. The commission covers the delivery of RIBA Stages 1–6, including design development, planning and statutory approvals, project management, construction support, environmental permitting, and the completion of a three-year Tier 3 groundwater monitoring and risk assessment programme. The appointed consultant team will be responsible for coordinating all required disciplines, managing stakeholder engagement, navigating a sensitive planning and environmental context, and ensuring the successful delivery of a strategically important project that safeguards long-term burial provision for the local community
